Macworld Disappointment

I'm glad I'm not the only one that felt this way. I, like most of us, spent the morning (or afternoon for you ESTers) working and sneaking peeks at one of the many Apple websites who were covering the Keynote address. I saw the few snapshots on engadget showing the phone, and when it got to 11am and I read "That's it. No "One more thing."". I felt letdown. I've been really itching to buy a Mac Mini for the home - where was the C2D minis? I'm eagerly awaiting more information on Leopard but got zilch.

Granted, when I got home later that night I watched the whole Keynote I felt a little better. The Apple TV, was well, ho-hum in my opinion, because you could do most of the stuff with a mini and Frontrow as it is. The iPhone, though, really was incredible, and you could tell Jobs knew it. I just know the smartphone makers all collectively died inside, because we haven't really seen one real k-rad innovation in smartphone technology in the last few years.

I guess I can only hope that more stuff is announced over the next few days.
